But he said that Li Shubai was under the care of little Fubao, and his life was quite comfortable. This little girl was lovely, lively and smart, but she didn't get along well with her parents. Li Shubai was not seen by Li Shubai for two or three days in a row. her parents.
Shu Bai felt apologetic in his heart: "Now that I have come to the house, how can I not meet the master?"
"Am I not the master?" Fu Bao pouted his braid with arrogance. road.
Li Shubai had no choice but to curl his lips and obey her. Seeing that he was injured, Fu Bao gave her his own ointment. In the past few days, she always pestered Li Shubai to tell her stories.
She said: "There is nothing in this big yard, not even the parents of tits and puppies, I am not asked to raise them. Apart from reading those stale books about the dead every day, it is so boring!"< br>
She called all those ancient books the Book of the Dead.
Li Shubai touched her little head: "Little fool, you don't know, there are many children who wanted to read these books when they were young but haven't yet!"
Fu Bao pouted: "Then Give it to them! The book is full of don’t do this, don’t do that, don’t do anything. I don’t know if it’s for us to read to discipline others, or to make us listen more to others. Human control."
Li Shubai could only smile and shake his head: "Your question is not bad, and it is worthy of further investigation, but you have to figure it out yourself."
Looking at Shubai. His condition was getting better day by day, and Fubao was worried about him leaving. On this day, he took dozens of martial arts secret books from home and gave them all to Li Shubai.
He looked through these secret books and couldn't help but be shocked: "What kind of person is your father? He actually has these books!"
Fu Bao said proudly: "I tell you, you are not allowed to tell others! My father used to be the prince of the current dynasty. His father gave him a mountain of gold and silver to live in seclusion here. Although he can no longer become a prince, he has a lot of wealth that he will never be able to spend in a few lifetimes!"
Li Shubai quickly went up and covered her mouth: " Little ancestor, if you have it, you can have it, you guys Have you told anyone else?"
Fu Bao shook his head: "That's not true, so Brother Shubai, why don't you stay? My family is rich and has martial arts secrets. Wandering outside is better than being a slave in my house Here’s a guy!”
Shu Bai took the martial arts secret books and looked at them again, thinking: This family only has one daughter, and several of these techniques can only be practiced by men. If I If you don’t practice it, I’m afraid it will be lost in the future! In this case, now that I have learned it, it is not considered stealing!
He turned to Fubao and said: "Fubao, I can promise to stay with you for a few more days, but there is no such thing as a banquet in the world. When I fully recover, I have to leave. If we are destined to come back in the future, I will come back Let’s play with you, okay?”< br>
After hearing this, Fu Bao made a fuss, but she did not dare to make too much noise to provoke Zhuo Yu. After all, her father was cautious about outsiders. If he wanted to see Li Shubai, he would be expelled from the house at the least. Or even beating him to death on the spot is unknown!
When Li Shubai saw the little girl crying, he immediately held her little face in his hands and comforted her in a soft voice: "Okay, okay, Fu Bao, my little Fu Bao, Shu Bai has been here for the past few days. My brother will accompany you every day and tell you many stories, okay? Good Fubao, you also know that your father and mother will not like me. If I stay too long, they will catch me. , I’m afraid you and I will never have the chance to meet again in this life, right?”
Fu Bao choked with sobs: “Then you promise me that even if you leave, you will come back to see me often!”
Li Shubai nodded quickly: "Of course! You will grow up quickly. When you are strong enough, you can come and play with Brother Shubai!"
Shubai coaxed Fu Bao for a long time before the two finally settled down.
Thus, for several days, Li Shubai was studying the secret books and practicing his sword at the same time. Fu Bao would sit under the tree and watch him. Occasionally, when he was free, he would tell some anecdotes. After about half a month, Li Shubai finally understood most of the sword manual, and there were still some that he hadn't finished yet, so he copied them and took them with him.
When bidding farewell to Fu Bao, Fu Bao asked him to hug him, but when he wasn't paying attention, he grabbed the secret book from his arms.
“Okay, you repaid kindness with hatred and stole my secret book!”
Li Shubai had no choice but to beg for mercy: "Good sister, I just copied it for a look. How could I understand everything in such a short time?"
Fu Bao looked through the manuscript roughly and threw it away. Entering the still-burning stove: "If you don't understand, you can stay in my house. If you want to leave, you can't learn the secret book! You make your own choice!"
She folded her little arms and turned away, secretly paying attention. Li Shubai, in fact, in the final analysis , she just wanted the boy to stay for a few more days, but after waiting for a long time, she did not see the boy showing weakness. Instead, she sighed deeply, cupped her hands and said:
"In that case, wait until I come to ask for advice next time. !”
Fu Bao couldn’t help but panic when she heard that he didn’t keep anyone, but when she heard that he would come back next time, a trace of joy rose in her heart. She was reluctant to go up and hug Li Shubai’s thigh for a long time. Be willing to let go.
Pouting her pink lips, she said: "Then you have to come earlier next time, otherwise, I won't wait for you!"
Li Shubai touched her head and then packed his luggage. , took out a grasshopper made of straw, handed it to her and said: "I will definitely come back!"
After that, he rushed up to the wall in three or two steps and climbed out. The moment he was riding on the wall, he turned back and watched Fu Bao look up at him.
At that moment, Fu Bao had the idea of being a boy for the first time in her heart. She hated herself. It would be great if she really was a boy as her parents said! But she gave birth to this useless daughter, and she could only be imprisoned in this deep courtyard since she was a child!
Her eyes were full of envy. This envy was better than the original reluctance and the original regret. But then, the pain in her heart covered up this layer of envy because she realized that she could not grow up all at once. , she couldn't turn into a boy all at once, and the huge feeling of powerlessness caused by this, a sense of loss like being suddenly abandoned by the whole world, enveloped her, and she suddenly felt empty in her heart.
But when she saw Li Shubai waving to her in the sunshine, she had no choice but to smile and wave to Li Shubai.
You must come back early.
Farewell to Fubao, Li Shubai once again embarked on the road back to Jingguo.
In his mind, the place called Jingguo had already changed dynasties and became a place occupied by foreigners.
Along the way, what he saw and heard were all the deeds of Yue people being nobler than Jing people. Jing people were talented, but the proportion of scholars was extremely low. Many Jing people could only tell stories in teahouses. , and even sell literature on the street to survive.
In the same institution of higher learning, incompetent people stand tall and proud, while Jingren, a well-educated scholar, can only sit at the back with his clothes on. Even so, he is only one of the few who have passed the examination among thousands of troops. .
Li Shubai couldn't help but feel resentful in his heart. Although the fate of these people had never intersected with his own, how could he, who had the same face and the blood of his clan, not be touched in his heart? !
